AI Breakdown

At a glance

The HZRDUS 7X5 is noticeably lighter at 400g versus 450g and uses higher-grade unidirectional carbon, but costs $20 more and offers a more limited curve selection. The Ribcor 96K is way more affordable in feel-per-dollar terms and gives you P28 and P29, which are far more widely used curves for most players.
